Comment by Swashbuckler:
The shot itself is fine, good focus/color. As for the challenge aspect, I'm a bit confused, or overwhelmed, take your pick. The wall has GREAT texture, but is obscurred by the vases. The vases have Wonderful texture, in various flavors, but none stand out "as THE subject". The flag sort of implies it is some sort of focal point, but the other vases are more interesting subjects. I gave you a 5. Swash (I really like the wall's texture!)

I would have like this photo more without the shelf and bracket above the pots, without the flag, and without the flower in the pot. Also, a tighter arrangement of the pots with them overlapping one another.

good texture in the stucco and the pots. I really like the colors. for some reason, though, I think the shot would have been a lot stronger without the flag in it. also, if you worked with the lighting a little more, you could make this a really terriffic shot. try cutting off all the ambient light, and put a lamp off to the side to create dramatic shadows and accentuate the textures. also, don't use a flash.

Love your pots and really love the textured wall. Nice colorful shot. I think your composition could use some help.....maybe a cloth gathered around the bottom of the pots and move them closer together. Nice. Kee

This would be a GREAT photo if it wasn't leaning to the left and that shelf bracket was not in it. GREAT idea and I do love the textures. Shiiizzzam

Comment by aelith:
Just for the record no keys were harmed in the execution of this shot. The over flow wax is cool and solid. But the picture was taken during an actual blackout and I couldn't check on my score here. And I thought, someday there will be no more electricity. We depend on it so much. The wax on the keys was to imply the electrity had been off a long time and might not be comming back on.. Oh and absentmindedness is also one of my fears. aelith
